We frequented this restaurant several times a year and this past week's experience was a total disappointment. The previous owner/chef has always impressed us with fresh ingredients, creative plating and good service. This time around everything went from an A+ to a poor C. The salmon sashimi came out like a loaf of bread - just sliced and placed on top of a piece of lettuce and not even fanned out. The portion size was like two thirds of what we had before and the worst part was it wasn't even fresh. The rolls came out falling apart and the avocado was not ripe. So from a creamy dreamy texture to hard and tasteless...The chicken teriyaki was again tasteless and just slapped on the plate. There were 6 of us and we ordered quite a bit of food. The dirty dishes started to pile up on top of each other, our teacups were empty, and there wasn't any service at all. Our udon came out missing the egg and chicken and it took a while before the waitress realized the mistake (I kept asking where's the egg and chicken?). If this new owner think he can bank on old repeated customers with poor food and service then he better start thinking hard. We definitely will not go back.
